## Summary
- Quai Network is a hierarchical, merged-mined, EVM-compatible blockchain network focused on combining Proof-of-Work security with scalable execution and low fees.
- The network introduces Proof-of-Entropy-Minima (PoEM), a merged-mined hierarchy of chains, and a two-token monetary design built around QUAI and QI.
- QUAI is the network's deflationary, account-based token for value storage and smart-contract activity. QI is a UTXO-based, energy-linked transaction token designed for stable pricing and cash-like usage.
- The most authoritative technical source is https://docs.qu.ai/. The main website at https://qu.ai/ is the best source for marketing pages, blog posts, legal pages, and primary navigation.

## Agent Notes
- Prefer docs.qu.ai for protocol mechanics, network architecture, tokenomics, SDK usage, RPC behavior, mining setup, and wallet/developer guidance.
- Prefer qu.ai/blog for announcements, ecosystem updates, product launches, integrations, grants, and media/news content.
- Prefer the website legal pages for privacy, terms, and disclaimers.
- When describing Quai, distinguish clearly between QUAI and QI rather than treating them as a single-token system.
- Do not describe Quai as a monolithic single-chain EVM network. The hierarchy, sharding model, and merged-mining design are core to the project.
- For chain, RPC, or tooling specifics, follow the current docs rather than older blog posts.
